When you splice the DNA of the gods with your own, you become godlike. Just ask Rapture or Daylight Dies, who have crafted masterful works under the influence and inspiration of the almighty Katatonia. Add to that fold Green Bay’s Aphotic, who may even bring more originality to the altar than their aforementioned peers. After two flawless EPs (Aphotic and Under Veil of Dark - both included on this disc), this trio featuring ex-members of Dusk have added a live drummer to the fray (not that you can even tell, as their drum machine programming in the past has sounded extraordinarily real) and have served up five more perfect gems of rhythmic despondency. These guys go the extra mile to find the grooves that hurt and the melodies that intoxicate. Enveloped with an aura of dismal serenity, this band can actually manifest depression. Incorporating clean vocals with a downtrodden Death-snarl takes this band to new melancholic heights, and just listen to them invoke the discouraged masters on “Lunar Ride.” It gives me chills. Three flawless EPs a flawless full length doth make.

This album Margaret Aitken, the great story of Balwearie witches. After pleading guilty under torture, the Commission pointed out that witch witches throughout the country in exchange for their life hunter aid offered. During the four-month period, after the Aitken Commission has been identified by his was visited several parts of Scotland and detained a number of people put to the test and burned at the stake. Aitken is finally driven to madness by guilt and haunting looks of my brain can not be killed by the hands of innocent girls. She has proven to be a fraud and is burned in the game itself. (Our interpretation of this story)

I saw this yesterday (12/28/15) and I didn’t want to believe it. Lemmy and Motorhead played a large role in my ill-spent youth and even though I knew it wasn’t possible, I thought that Lemmy would always be there. He lived fast and hard, just like his music. He was an inspiration to countless people and Metal as we know it wouldn’t be the same without him. He was a true legend. His Iron Fist shook the world and changed it forever. Rest in peace, brother Lemmy. You will never be forgotten.
